New Zealand vs West Indies

New Zealand enters Monday's Test against the West Indies as the clear favorite, with moneyline odds averaging 1.36 across 177 bookmakers. The Black Caps' strong recent form and home advantage are significant factors reflected in these numbers. For the visiting West Indies, the odds of 9.77 suggest a considerable challenge lies ahead, though their potential for an upset cannot be entirely discounted.

A drawn result is priced at 4.24, a possibility that cannot be overlooked given the unpredictable nature of Test cricket and potential weather interruptions. The odds structure indicates that while a New Zealand victory is the most probable outcome, the longer format always leaves room for dramatic shifts in momentum. This sets the stage for a compelling contest between a disciplined home side and a West Indies team known for its flair.
